Honestly I thought I would like this book much more than I did. It's very me: a book that explores mother-daughter relationships and discusses family trauma and grief. I didn't dislike the book, but I found it a little confusing. Unless it is written well, I have a hard time following a book that doesn't have a linear timeline, and with the amount of characters in this book, it was not necessarily easy to follow. I liked the ending and thought it closed out the book really well.Â
Overall not bad but not my favorite book.

I underlined so many lines and though I’ve never cried reading a book, this one has come closest.
I felt a bit intimidated when picking this up because it’s not my usual genre but I’m so glad I did.
